ERGATTA ROWER

Gamifying any experience generally makes it more fun and the Ergatta Rower is by far one of the most entertaini­ng ways to burn calories. It also helps that the slick interactiv­e touchscree­n is mounted to a fine indoor rower (WaterRower’s American Cherry Wood model). The Ergatta digital experience includes everything from structured workouts to interactiv­e games, where the rower sucks up virtual rings with every stroke. Focus on the display, and you won’t even notice you’re burning off the flab. £2,495, waterrower.co.uk

MAGIC AI FITNESS SMART MIRROR

Ignore the name, this doesn’t actually involve magic, but instead the mirror uses a front-facing camera to track your movements as you workout. A ‘personal trainer’ appears on the mirror’s touchscree­n surface to guide you through a number of strength, HIIT and even boxing routines, while reps are automatica­lly counted and form corrected where necessary. It’s a great way of squeezing the most out of every single rep, perfecting form and generally having a digital PT tell you exactly what to do.

£1,399, magic.fit

WATTBIKE ATOM

Arguably the most realistic indoor riding experience out there, the Atom fuses Wattbike’s deep knowledge of cycling sensors and data collection, and packages it up in one stylish but awesomely powerful piece of kit. Connect with Zwift via a tablet or larger screen for virtual cycling sessions, or train using Wattbike’s own inbuilt tools. The gear changes and gradient simulation are fantastic, while the magnetic resistance system means it is quiet enough to train in the living room while The Traitors is on.

£2,400, wattbike.com

BOWFLEX MAX TRAINER SEI

Compact, quiet and capable of working a whole host of major muscle groups in the body, the low-impact Max Trainer SEi is fantastic for working up a sweat without putting too much strain on the joints and ligaments. The latest model includes a 7-inch colour display, 16 resistance levels and four-grip handlebars, as well as a media rack for housing a tablet. Pair it with the JRNY app and you’ll get access to on-demand training sessions and a library of calorie-torching workouts
